Wanna use a button to open the "new linked record"

To simplify the description…
I have 1 table that has a field of a Linked record.
I need a dead simple way for my teammates to know to Create a New Record.

Idea:
Create a button with a good label, that opens the new blank record in that Linked Record field.

I haven’t found in any examples a way to open a blank/new record on a different table, that is linked to the record where you initiate the process.

Please help.

Thanks in advance.

Welcome to the Airtable community!

You could have a form that creates a new record. Then use a button field that opens the form, refilling the linked record field.

That is indeed an interesting solution.
